AS the old saying goes, bigger is better but when it comes to finding the right bra, large breasts can be a problem.

Research by underwear brand Panache found the average woman owns seven bras, but only wears five of them.

Model Holly says finding bras in her size can be difficult

And this is often because it can be difficult to find well-fitting, supportive ones that are stylish.

Model Holly Peers, 29, has a 32G cup and finds it a struggle to buy bras that feel comfortable as well as look sexy.

She says: “Shopping for my boobs is not easy. All the high-end fancy bra brands cut off at a DD which is far too small for me. I do struggle to get my size in most shops, but I think more and more girls have bigger boobs nowadays because the larger sizes are always sold out.

“Retailers should cater for us more. It has improved, though. I have more options now than I had years ago.”

So in which stores can bigger-busted women find lingerie that ticks all the boxes?

CLEMMIE FIELDSEND asked Holly to try on seven bra sets and score them out of ten for fit, comfort, style and sexiness to see which one is out in front.
